Galactic Man!

Meet Galatic Man.

On Saturday the 24th of March Travis and i performed a rescue mission! Galactic Man was saved from Melbournes Crown Casino! He had a lovely day in Melbourne before returning to his home now in the Greater City.

Galactic Man has learned many things in his time. He now knows how to play peekaboo. this game was played with a bus driver on a car trip. he's a very friendly monster.

Galactic many has many friends.

now he never has to go back to big bad Melbourne again.

The Dentist...

Who likes the dentist?

only when I'm experiencing lots of pain do i consider going to the dentist.

this happened on Sunday, i had LOTS of pain. i was eating painkillers for lunch it was that bad. i suffered pain all day to ring the dentist on Monday and have an appointment made for Tuesday. that was cool, the end of pain was in sight!

so like six years ago when i went to the dentist i made up my mind that i did not like them. not at all. not even a little bit.

i had a tooth ache. my dad had a tooth ache. so off we went together to the dentist. dad went first. i waited..... and waited..... and waited.... and waited...... i am not a patient person and i waited for A LONG TIME! that was the start.

then after a long wait i was next. the lady looked in my mouth and didn't know what was wrong. she looked, and looked and looked and looked. then she did a test and another test and another test before she made up her mind what it was. a tooth with a hole..... ah! surprise a filling is needed!

then she proceeds towards my mouth and A VERY BIG NEEDLE! in goes the needle, then out it comes, then in again , then out, then in again! keep in mind THIS HURTS! then she does the SAME IN THE FRONT OF MY MOUTH!

i was not happy.

so after all that i get a filling. my first filling....

i don't like dentists.

anyone else have dentist horror stories?

what do you live your life by?

think about your life.

What is one fundamental principle in the way you live your life?


how about the way you live alongside others?

what do you consider to be unethical about the way people live their lives? what are unethical behaviours?

thoughts from uni

so i was doing this really strange reading for a class (most of which i didn't agree with) and found this -

any male who thinks he is in control of the courtship process is having himself on. once women started demanding their future husband should be 'tried out' before marriage, men lost control. in the USA of the 1860s, women made a virtue out of 'candour' to test men's real feelings. The practice of multiple 'dating' came from the urban poor in the 1890s but soon become a universal way of gaining confidence, especially for women, though the men paid for the privilege.

I'm doing a subject called 'relationships, gender and sexuality'. some of it is good and some, not so good. today in a lecture we were talking about what makes a family. the issues of gay families and multiple partners and marriage all came up as well as transsexuals. different values and world views were rather evident in the reactions of some who willingly expressed their views. all the guys in the class did not agree with families being anything other than a mother and father with kids, rather than two fathers or what not.

it was rather interesting to look at what families provided in their function. things such as
physical care and protection
socialisation and education
proceation and child rearing
economic support

these are all traditional functions and now shared by other organisations in society such as schools, centrelink, counselors and many others.

any thoughts?
